The this Keyword

For the sake of simplicity

For simplicity, it is a popular practice to give a parameter the same name as the member variable it is being assigned to. In such a case, the this keyword can be used to differentiate between the parameter and the member variable.

Put simply, the this keyword can be used in a class to refer to the current calling object.
